Who We Are
Our website address is: https://snipesmoke.com. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your information when you visit our website.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.
An anonymized string created from your email address (hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The Gravatar service’s privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture is visible to the public within the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images to our website, avoid uploading images that contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can download and extract location data from images on the site.
Cookies
If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to saving your name, email, and website in cookies. These are for convenience so that you do not have to re-enter your details when you leave another comment. These cookies last for one year.
If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we set up several cookies to save your login information and display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and screen preferences cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login persists for two weeks. Logging out removes these cookies.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after one day.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if you visited those websites directly.
These external websites may collect data, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interactions, including tracking if you have an account and are logged into that website.
Who We Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, both the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them for moderation.
For registered users (if any), we store personal information provided in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except for their username). Website administrators can also view and edit this information.
Your Rights Over Your Data
If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request an exported file of your personal data, including any data you provided. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include data we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
